New Vector Add-On Just The Ticket For Airway Lanes

Apr 12, 2012Modernize a Center

With go-carts, laser tag, bumper cars, mini golf and a bustling arcade plus 40 lanes of bowling, Airway Lanes in Kalamazoo, Michigan already offers everything imaginable at a Family Entertainment Center. But thanks to a new innovation from Brunswick, bowling has added a new dimension – as an extension of Airway’s prize redemption program.

Airway installed our new Ticket Depot on several lanes, which dispenses prize tickets according to how each bowler scores. It’s a nice perk for open play. “And it’s a no-brainer for birthday parties,” says general manager Marc Wiese. Besides adding value to their party packages, Ticket Depot helps Airway manage big groups of little kids. “They head straight to the ticket box after each roll. It keeps them out of the ball returns,” notes Wiese.

Ticket Depot is driven by Vector® Plus Version 5. “We always get the latest and greatest updates” to Vector Plus, he says. And Airway is the first center in the world to install Ticket Depot. “It’s a huge hit,” concludes Wiese. “The box looks and works great, never jams and holds plenty of tickets. We want to drive more bowlers into the game room, and this really wets their whistle.”
